iTunes Review

On their sophomore album Blink, Revive embraces a more pop-oriented sound while maintaining an inspirational Christian message. In contrast to their Mac Powell-produced debut, the Australian-bred group (now based in Atlanta) downplays guitar heroics in favor of a flexible, highly melodic sound. Newly recruited guitarist A.J. Cheek likewise serves up crisp, succinct riffs that drive home the tunes without overpowering them. Lyrically, Blink returns again and again to the fleeting nature of experience. Tracks like “Almost Missed This Moment,” “Something Glorious” and the title tune are at once wistful and uplifting, urging listeners to embrace life at its fullest. Frontman Dave Hanbury applies his clear, yearning tones to crowd-rousing numbers like “Love Found Me” and “Don’t Give Up the Fight” as well as reassuring ballads like “We Were Meant to Be” and “Hold On Love.” The album’s intimate closing track “Welcome to Eternity” is especially moving in its reflections upon old dreams and new realizations.

Everyday I'd find more and more sad, depressing, disturbing songs that had cool beats but the complete opposite message of what I needed to hear. So I decided to turn my life around and start with all Christian music. This album is my favorite so far. "Hold On Love" and "Something Glorious" really caught my eye and I know for a fact that something on this album will dot he same for you. Good luck on this journey with God, we're all on it together.

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!!!!
